Giant warrior Chase Brandstone joins Richard, Zed and Kahlan on their quest to stop the rising dark lord, but that turns Michael's men against his family. Darken Rahl's warlocks and sorcerers jointly weaken the magical border until his army can pass, to capture the magical book. Richard rather burns it and wields the sword with unhoped-for success, except that Kahlan's magical companion is fatally wounded. Zed approves of it being withheld from Darken at any cost and their party can now cross the border themselves. Written by KGF Vissers
